The gas entering the mi'xingfelmmber is entirely surrounded by incoming air, which is broken up into Mllull streams or jets. giving the gas an opportunity to mix in with the same and pro tlllt't an intimate. homogenmma mixture. lhienahlea the formation of a very lean ya. at homtmenemm qaality. Actual teats have hown that when the air. openings of the air and a mixer are closed the engine develops on v a limited speed and power,

hat without any alterationof the oil valve the mere owning of theair ports to the mixing ehalnher immediately prmluces a remarkahlv great. increase in speed as' well as power. thereby greatly increasing the chieieney of the engine without increasing the quantity of fuel. What I claim-is:

'I'he comhinatioa with an explosive engine eylimler, .ot' a vaporizer or earlmreter, conneetions therefrmn to the engine cyltniler, aml a mixer to mild connections comprising a eh'innla-r ha'ving'one end connected to the engine e vlintler and rovitleil with air 0 nings inits other em a nozzle eonnecteil to the vaporizer and proiecting into the mixing ehamher heyoml the air n iwaingmand'a perforated plate between rtllt nozzle and chamher walls in tulvanee of the air openings.
